Lol that should say far not fat.

I understand how you feel. I have had 25lbs to go for the last month and a half to reach goal, and no movement on that damn scale. It gets tough but I know if I made it this fat I can do it. I just joined myfitnesspal to journal/track my food and exercise, I tend to do better when I do this. I also have family/friends who say they do better when that track. Keep your head up and good luck;-)

That is so true, yesterday was a "mental hunger" type of day, and today not so much. So some days are definitely harder than others for me too.

Looking to start a social group on here for Baltimore lap banders. Is anyone interested in joining?

OK, so I have been hitting the gym hard since a month before my surgery and loving it. About 4 weeks ago I was really sick and didn't go to the gym at all that week. The next week I hurt my foot and couldn't even wear shoes, the third week I went on vacation and the fourth week I just didn't feel like going. It is really killing me inside, how can it take 30 days to form a habit but just moments to break one! Well I finally got back into gear this week by doing weight training at home and going to Zumba. I'm just hoping I can get back that passion for hitting the gym again and putting in a hard workout!

I also find that if I wake up in the middle of the night I have a strong urge to munch. I try to keep a cup of water next to the bed and if I wake up I drink it right away, then I feel full and it usually cuts the craving off (but not always lol.)

Thank you! This article make so much sense to me and I plan on using some of the techniques in the future.

I just down loaded myfitnesspal app, anyone wanna be my pal?

Glad everything went well!
